Peter Kioso (born 15 August 1999) is an Irish professional footballer who plays as a wing-back for EFL Championship club Oxford United.
Kioso was born in Swords, Dublin. [1] [2] He and his family later moved to Milton Keynes, England in 2010. [3]
Kioso joined the academy of Milton Keynes Dons at the age of 14 and progressed to the club's under-18 side before being released in 2017. [3] He had a brief spell with non-League Dunstable Town [4] before joining National League club Hartlepool United [3] [2] [5] where he remained for two seasons, making 70 appearances and scoring 4 goals. [3] Kioso was named in Hartlepool's team of the decade for the 2010s. [6]
On 22 January 2020, Kioso joined Championship club Luton Town for an undisclosed fee. [7] Luton manager Graeme Jones said Kioso was "one for the future", [8] and in March 2020 said he had been "impressed" by Kioso in training, and would consider giving him his debut. [9] He made his Football League debut for Luton on 18 July 2020. [10]
On 15 October 2020 he moved on loan to League Two club Bolton Wanderers. [11] He made his debut two days later in a 2–1 home defeat against Oldham Athletic. [12] Two days after that he scored Bolton's first goal in a 3–3 draw against Barrow. [12] On 11 January 2021 Luton recalled Kioso from his loan after an injury to James Bree. [13] [14] [15]
On 25 January 2021, Kioso joined League One side Northampton Town on loan for the remainder of the 2020–21 season. [16] Kioso had already played for Luton and Bolton in the 2020–21 season, usually meaning he would not be able to sign for a third team as players can only play for two teams in one season – however FIFA changed the rules for that season to allow players to play for three teams, to alleviate the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on football. [17]
He returned to his academy club Milton Keynes Dons on loan on 31 August 2021. [18] [19] Kioso scored his first goal since his return to the club on 18 September 2021 in a 4–1 away win over Gillingham. [20] On 18 January 2022, Kioso was recalled to Luton from his loan. [21]
On 23 June 2022, it was announced that Kioso had signed for Championship club Rotherham United on a permanent basis. [22] [23]
On 18 July 2023, Kioso signed for League One club Peterborough United on a season-long loan deal. [24] [25] In September 2023, he was named club captain by manager Darren Ferguson, scoring his first goal for the club in his first match with the armband. [26] Having continued to impress, he was recalled by Rotherham on 2 January 2024. [27]
Kioso joined Oxford United for an undisclosed fee on 24 June 2024. [28] [29]
Kioso's parents are from DR Congo. [1] His brother Gedeon is also a footballer; the two played together at Dunstable Town, with Peter at right back and his brother at left back. [4] [30] His cousin Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu is also a footballer; the two played together at Luton Town. [31]
